CAP of Downers Grove

About CAP of Downers Grove

CAP of Downers Grove is an outpatient opioid treatment clinic in Downers Grove, Illinois, run by CAP Quality Care, which also operates clinics in Chicago and Westbrook, Maine. They focus specifically on opioid use disorder, providing methadone along with buprenorphine, including Suboxone when it’s a good fit. Their approach is to make these medications easier to get while treating people with dignity and helping them work through the shame that often comes with opioid addiction. The care team includes doctors, nurses, and licensed and certified drug and alcohol counselors, and several members of their leadership have been with the organization for ten years or more.

Getting started begins with a short phone screening with a counselor, and new patients can often be seen as soon as the next day. The intake visit runs about three hours and includes separate assessments with a counselor, a nurse, and a doctor, with the first dose of medication given that same day. From there, each person receives an individualized care plan that pairs medication with counseling, ongoing support services, and planning for long-term recovery. Dosing is available early on weekday mornings, during a midday window, and on Saturday mornings, which can make it easier to keep up with treatment while working or managing family responsibilities.
